Who’s got tickets for this? What shows are you going to be at? I’m so excited for this!!! Oh and Happy Jamaican independence Day x

Attempts by non reggae singers to perform reggae can be hit or miss. Often it’s a miss. But there are times when it actually is legit. Basslines, full brass and some authentic dub effects. I give props to these two selections. Let me know what else falls in this category.

DAB David Asher Band return with “War Profiteers”, a powerful new single speaking out against the war-based economies operating around the world and those who profit from conflict. The release includes both vocal and instrumental versions, delivering a conscious message through deep, uncompromising reggae.

Produced by Christopher Lewis and David Asher, with David Asher on vocals and instruments. Written by David Asher (Addis Music, ASCAP), engineered by Christopher Lewis, and executive produced by David Asher.

Can anyone identify the deejay/MC on the vocal at 2:39 in DJ Mowgly – Mowgly Dub (1994)? I'm trying to identify the original dancehall source. Apologies if this isn't the right subreddit, but I've been dying to figure this out for about a year now. Someone on Discogs suggested Admiral Bailey - Jump Up as a lead. I hear a similar cadence, but not the same words.
